Hippo or Jolly Snowman: what the numbers say

Hippo and Jolly Snowman are both Epic binocular animals, but Hippo runs 8-hour activities and Jolly Snowman 4-hour ones, each doing 4 activities before a 24-hour sleep. Finishing an activity early costs 2,880 coins with Hippo and 1,800 with Jolly Snowman. Per 30 minutes of activity at level 7, Jolly Snowman is ahead on both binoculars (9 against 6.5) and heart gems (150 against 87). Hippo goes on to level 10, where it reaches 1,632 heart gems and 108 binoculars per activity, a level Jolly Snowman cannot reach. Collected on time and counting the sleep, a level 10 Hippo makes about 185 binoculars and 2,798 heart gems a day, against 173 and 2,880 for a level 7 Jolly Snowman, so per day Hippo is the pick for binoculars and Jolly Snowman for heart gems. Hippo hatches from the Yellow Egg, while Jolly Snowman is a real money purchase only.
